Judge Judy unrecognisable as TV legend, 80, seen alongside husband Jerry
TV legend Judge Judy looked nothing like she does on screen as she headed for lunch in LA yesterday.
The star, who is 80, ditched her formal court room attire, opting for fitted jeans and top instead.
Joined by her husband Jerry Sheindlin, 89, Judy – whose last name is Sheindlin – showed off her tan following a recent break in the Bahamas to celebrate her birthday.
In 2020, Judy announced she was quitting her famous CBS show after a 25 year run.
At the time, she was the highest paid star on TV with a record-breaking $47million salary.
Judy has presided over more than 10,000 episodes in which she settles small claims disputes in a televised courtroom.

It has proven a huge hit over the years with its weekday shows pulling in around 10million viewers at a time.
Despite plaintiffs and defendants going head to head in her courtroom, the show is in fact a win-win for all involved.
Producers of the show cover all costs in Judge Judy’s rulings, even for those who are found guilty.
She hasn’t quit TV for good though and has since launched Judy Justice on Amazon.
It features her working alongside law Clerk, Sarah Rose, bailiff, Kevin Rasco and stenographer, Whitney Kumar.
Speaking about the new show, Judy said: “Judy Justice is an exciting new adventure that gives me an opportunity to come into streaming while producing a whole new different kind of court show.
“I’ve been sort of alone for the past 25 years, now I have a new team.”
